Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Although the Yin Spirit lacks the ability to discern the opponent’s realm, the opponent’s ability to pinpoint the Yin Spirit amid the multitude of demonic and sinister energies proves that they are far beyond the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment like Fang Xiaolin and his group.

”It seems unlikely to be just a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator,” Wen Jiu swallowed a Spiritual Supplement Pill while heading toward Deadman Peak and sent a sound transmission to Feng Jue.

Inside the Prohibition of Living People.

Not merely a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

Fellow Daoist, do you have any contingency plans?

After sending the transmission, Wen Jiu waited for a reply.

At this time, Feng Jue was marveling at Wen Jiu’s second feat of External Foundation Establishment, but his expression suddenly froze upon hearing this message.

He immediately took out the core Array Disc, carefully examining the seven array nodes. Seeing no abnormalities, he breathed a sigh of relief.

”Fellow Daoist Han, how did you come to know of this matter?” Feng Jue hurriedly transmitted a question.

Wen Jiu responded with a single line, ”I left some spying devices within, but they were just wiped out simultaneously.”

”Can it be checked only by someone beyond Mid-stage Foundation Establishment?”

”Hmm, hmm.”

With Wen Jiu’s confirmation, Feng Jue dared not put away the core Array Disc, but instead kept a close watch on its status. The Soul-devouring Lifeless Array was the crux of this operation and could not afford any mistakes.

”Don’t worry, fellow Daoist. Currently, no abnormalities have occurred at the seven array nodes,” Feng Jue quickly transmitted in response, ”If it’s just two Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Fellow Daoist Shankui should be able to handle it.”

Hearing these words, Wen Jiu couldn’t help but be a bit surprised. Is this Shankui from the Three Life Gates truly that strong?

Feng Jue continued, ”All are at Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, but Fellow Daoist Shankui is just a step away from Late Stage, and he’s a disciple under a Golden Core True Disciple. Otherwise, how do you think we obtained the Soul-devouring Lifeless Array?”

Feng Jue knew Wen Jiu was a cunning and intelligent person and was aware of the meaning behind Wen Jiu’s last question.

Thus, he truthfully revealed Shankui’s actual situation.

”Then I won’t disturb you further, fellow Daoist.” Wen Jiu put away the Sound Transmission Talisman, said no more, and continued walking towards Deadman Peak, all the while examining the Dao Foundation of Blood Ink Three Thousand.

What a pity.

Can’t discern anything significant.

Left with no choice, he could only return to Deadman Peak and wait for the daily settlement.

[Daily Settlement Panel Lv2 (657/1000)]

[Blood Ink Three Thousand gained realm advancement and panel experience +1, Corpse Nurturer experience +100, and acquired the Corpse Fate Technique after achieving External Foundation Establishment, enduring the Red Refining Celestial Thunder, and integrating the Soul Cultivation Technique·Fate Technique.]

[Blood Ink Three Thousand’s External Foundation Establishment succeeded, and the main body received a substantial cultivation feedback, panel experience +1, Qi Cultivation Realm +2, Yin Sha True Spirit Body realm +2, Yinzhou Heterodox Record experience +1500.]

”Corpse Fate Technique.”

Upon seeing this brand new technique, Wen Jiu promptly opened the information panel for Blood Ink Three Thousand to check.

[Blood Ink Three Thousand·Three Evil Flying Corpses (Tier Two (Lower Realm 0/40000))]

[Skills: Corpse Fate Technique (Beginner 1205/5000), Yin Sha True Spirit Body·Tier Two (Lower Realm 0/20000)]

[Corpse Fate Technique]

[Obtained through the fusion of Fate Technique and corpse energy during External Foundation Establishment. At minor achievement, it can divine the location of people and objects, consuming corpse energy; at major achievement, it can observe others’ fate, at the cost of a corpse body’s Yin fortune, and is against the heavens; at perfection, it can predict one’s own fortunes and misfortunes, requiring human lifespan, with the user’s own lifespan varying based on the situation, and others’ lifespan starting at a century minimum.]

”Divining people and objects only requires corpse energy,” Wen Jiu rejoiced, but soon noticed the costs of the latter two.

The former costs the Yin fortune of the corpse body, going against the heavens.

The words ’going against the heavens’ are no trivial matter; such things often cannot be seen or touched, but if it required crossing a Thunder Tribulation like during External Foundation Establishment, the terror of the Thunder Tribulation would be beyond imagination.

”It seems best to minimize its use in the future.”

”However, in terms of predicting one’s own fortunes, if it can be used more, it definitely should be. As they say, ’A healer cannot heal oneself, a fortune-teller cannot predict their own fate,’ but the Corpse Fate Technique can foretell one’s own fortunes and misfortunes, surpassing even divine techniques.”

”But the depletion of lifespan element must be carefully managed, as longevity hasn’t been achieved yet and life is ultimately limited. However, it can use others’ lifespan for divination, which does offer some opportunities.”

”But if a century is the minimum, wouldn’t that mean killing one person for one prediction? If predicting daily fortunes, wouldn’t that mean killing one person every day?” Wen Jiu fell silent for a moment.

If possible, he indeed wanted to predict his fortunes daily.

But this daily killing of one person seemed somewhat too sinister.

Though he was a Heterodox Cultivator, if he truly embarked on this path, it would be hard to turn back.

”I’ll decide when the time comes.”

”If I really can’t turn back, then I won’t!”

Wen Jiu collected his thoughts and reverted to his identity as Wen Jiu, using the Hidden God Technique to maintain his cultivation at Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer.

After leaving his place of cultivation, Wen Jiu first visited his master Ye Chen, and then stopped by to see his two senior sisters. It was worth noting that the disciples who had gone to the Langhuan Blessed Land had returned.

Compared to the matter of the Celestial Extinction Ruins, ordinary disciples were more concerned about the sect prodigies who had come out of the Langhuan Blessed Land.

Wang Xianzhi, Du Feng, and their group all returned laden with rewards, successfully advancing one realm in their cultivation.

Upon learning that Wen Jiu had exited seclusion, Chen Daoqing also rushed over, along with Wang Xianzhi.

Because Wang Xianzhi, as the top person of their entry batch, had thought that after entering the Langhuan Blessed Land, he could completely outshine Wen Jiu; but after leaving the Langhuan Blessed Land, he learned that Wen Jiu had already reached Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer in just a few months, with quite an incredible track record.

Thus, Wang Xianzhi wanted to meet Wen Jiu.

Regarding Wang Xianzhi’s arrival, Wen Jiu merely exchanged a few simple pleasantries, little expecting that the other party had come to declare a challenge, wishing to compete on who can reach Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer first.

To this, Wen Jiu simply responded with a smile, saying nothing more.
